    Configuring AAA AAA overview Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) provides a uniform framework for implementing network access management. It can provide the following security functions: Authentication—Identifies users and determines whether a user is valid. • Authorization—Grants different users different rights and controls their access to resources and •...
  • Page 12: Radius

    RADIUS Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) is a distributed information interaction protocol that uses a client/server model. It can protect networks against unauthorized access and is often used in network environments where both high security and remote user access are required. RADIUS uses UDP as the transport protocol.
  • Page 13 Figure 3 Basic RADIUS message exchange process RADIUS operates in the following manner: The host initiates a connection request that carries the user’s username and password to the RADIUS client. Having received the username and password, the RADIUS client sends an authentication request (Access-Request) to the RADIUS server, with the user password encrypted by using the Message-Digest 5 (MD5) algorithm and the shared key.
  • Page 14 Figure 4 RADIUS packet format Descriptions of the fields are as follows: • The Code field (1 byte long) indicates the type of the RADIUS packet. Table 1 gives the possible values and their meanings. Table 1 Main values of the Code field Code Packet type Description...
  • Page 15 The Attributes field (variable in length) carries the specific authentication, authorization, and • accounting information that defines the configuration details of the request or response. This field may contain multiple attributes, each with three sub-fields: Type—(1 byte long) Type of the attribute. It is in the range of 1 to 255. Commonly used RADIUS attributes are defined in RFC 2865, RFC 2866, RFC 2867, and RFC 2868.

    The user enters the password. After receiving the login password, the HWTACACS client sends the HWTACACS server a continue-authentication packet that carries the login password. The HWTACACS server sends back an authentication response to indicate that the user has passed authentication. The HWTACACS client sends the user an authorization request packet to the HWTACACS server.

    In addition, AAA provides the following services for login users to enhance switch security: • Command authorization—Enables the NAS to defer to the authorization server to determine whether a command entered by a login user is permitted for the user, making sure that login users execute only commands they are authorized to execute.

  • Page 30: Configuring Radius Schemes

    Configuring RADIUS schemes A RADIUS scheme specifies the RADIUS servers that the switch can cooperate with and defines a set of parameters that the switch uses to exchange information with the RADIUS servers. There may be authentication/authorization servers and accounting servers, or primary servers and secondary servers. The parameters include the IP addresses of the servers, the shared keys, and the RADIUS server type.
  • Page 31 Specifying the RADIUS authentication/authorization servers You can specify one primary authentication/authorization server and up to 16 secondary authentication/authorization servers for a RADIUS scheme. When the primary server is not available, a secondary server is used. In a scenario where redundancy is not required, specify only the primary server.
  • Page 32 By setting the maximum number of real-time accounting attempts for a scheme, you make the switch disconnect users for whom no accounting response is received before the number of accounting attempts reaches the limit. When the switch receives a connection teardown request from a host or a connection teardown notification from an administrator, it sends a stop-accounting request to the accounting server.
  • Page 33 Specifying the shared keys for secure RADIUS communication The RADIUS client and RADIUS server use the MD5 algorithm to authenticate packets exchanged between them and use shared keys for packet authentication and user passwords encryption. They must use the same key for the same type of communication. A shared key configured in this task is for all servers of the same type (accounting or authentication) in the scheme, and has a lower priority than a shared key configured individually for a RADIUS server.
  • Page 34 For level switching authentication, the user-name-format keep-original and user-name-format • without-domain commands produce the same results. They make sure usernames sent to the RADIUS server carry no ISP domain name. To set the username format and the traffic statistics units for a RADIUS scheme: Step Command Remarks...

If the two are identical, the authentication server considers the client valid and sends a RADIUS Access-Accept packet to the network access device. Upon receiving the RADIUS Access-Accept packet, the network access device sends an EAP-Success packet to the client, and sets the controlled port in the authorized state so the client can access the network.

    Configuring 802.1X This chapter describes how to configure 802.1X on an HP device. You can also configure the port security feature to perform 802.1X. Port security combines and extends 802.1X and MAC authentication. It applies to a network that requires different authentication methods for different users on a port.
  • Page 85 With 802.1X authentication, a hybrid port is always assigned to a VLAN as an untagged member. After the assignment, do not re-configure the port as a tagged member in the VLAN. On a periodic online user re-authentication enabled port, if a user has been online before you enable the MAC-based VLAN function, the access device does not create a MAC-to-VLAN mapping for the user unless the user passes re-authentication and the VLAN for the user has changed.

    Configuring port security Overview Port security combines and extends 802.1X and MAC authentication to provide MAC-based network access control. It applies to a network that requires different authentication methods for different users on a port. Port security prevents unauthorized access to the network by checking the source MAC address of inbound traffic and prevents access to unauthorized devices by checking the destination MAC address of outbound traffic.

Authentication—Security modes in this category implement MAC authentication, 802.1X • authentication, or a combination of these two authentication methods. Upon receiving a frame, the port in a security mode searches the MAC address table for the source MAC address.
  • Page 125 Controlling MAC address learning autoLearn • A port in this mode can learn MAC addresses, and allows frames from learned or configured MAC addresses to pass. The automatically learned MAC addresses are secure MAC addresses. You can also configure secure MAC addresses by using the port-security mac-address security command.

  • Page 166: Configuring Pki

    Configuring PKI Overview The Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) is a general security infrastructure used to provide information security through public key technologies. PKI, also called asymmetric key infrastructure, uses a key pair to encrypt and decrypt the data. The key pair consists of a private key and a public key.
  • Page 167: Pki Architecture

    such as phone, disk, and email. As different CAs might use different methods to examine the binding of a public key with an entity, make sure that you understand the CA policy before selecting a trusted CA for certificate request. PKI architecture A PKI system consists of entities, a CA, a registration authority (RA) and a PKI repository.
  • Page 168: Pki Applications

    An entity submits a certificate request to the RA. The RA reviews the identity of the entity and then sends the identity information and the public key with a digital signature to the CA. The CA verifies the digital signature, approves the application, and issues a certificate. The RA receives the certificate from the CA, sends it to the LDAP server or other distribution point to provide directory navigation service, and notifies the entity that the certificate is successfully issued.

    An online certificate request can be submitted in manual mode or auto mode. Submitting a certificate request in auto mode IMPORTANT: In auto mode, an entity does not automatically re-request a certificate to replace a certificate that is expiring or has expired. After the certificate expires, the service using the certificate might be interrupted. In auto mode, an entity automatically requests a certificate from the CA server through SCEP if it has no local certificate for an application working with PKI, and then retrieves the certificate and saves the certificate locally.

  • Page 269: Configuring Mff

    Configuring MFF Overview Traditional Ethernet networking solutions use the VLAN technology to isolate users at Layer 2 and to allow them to communicate at Layer 3. However, when a large number of hosts need to be isolated at Layer 2, many VLAN resources are occupied, and many IP addresses are used because you have to assign a network segment to each VLAN and an IP address to each VLAN interface for Layer 3 communication.
  • Page 270: Basic Concepts

    NOTE: An MFF-enabled device and a host cannot ping each other. Basic concepts A device with MFF enabled provides two types of ports: user port and network port. If you enable MFF for a VLAN, each port in the VLAN must be an MFF network or user port. Link aggregation is supported by network ports in an MFF-enabled VLAN, but is not supported by user ports in the VLAN.
  • Page 271: Working Mechanism

    The MFF device also forges ARP requests to get the gateway’s MAC address based on ARP snooping entries. After learning the gateway’s MAC address and then receiving an ARP packet with a different source MAC address from the default gateway, the MFF device will replace the old MAC address with the new one.

    You can specify a server’s IP address in either manual or automatic MFF mode. The server can be a DHCP server, a server providing some other service, or the real IP address of a VRRP standby group. After you specify a server’s IP address and then an ARP request from the server is received, the MFF device will search the IP-to-MAC address entries it has stored, and reply with the corresponding MAC address to the server.
